Irene and all -- you realize that steam heat in tenement apartments in NYC was a direct response to Spanish Flu? It was believed that if you forced people to open the windows in winter it would prevent air stagnation and promote public health. I love NYC steam heat. My Mom, may she rest in peace, said that when she finally moved into a house after marrying my Dad that it's the one thing she really missed.

Leonard Cohen = a national treasure. I feel blessed to have seen him at Radio City Music Hall ages ago, when he had to go on tour after his manager ripped him off. Honestly, if I had the chance to re-see any one concert that I've been to in my life, it would be a coin flip between Bowie's "Modern Love" tour and that show.

Cool story-I brought my wife on our first date to see Abdullah Ibrahim and Ekaya (she should have known then what to expect).

The somewhat good news here in Germany is that the CDU (Conservatives) can make the Govt with the SPD Socialists) and the AfD is prevented from being in the coalition. And 2 other partied that suck, the BSW and the FDP are out of Parliament entirely, not getting even 5%.
